so did I screw up I've bleed these to death and read the archieves and bleed them again. no air at all or pedal pressure, did it the one man method .. if it shoots fluid the calipers arn't stuck are they?

Help me out. How are they mounted ?? Flip them from side to side if you have the bleed nipples on the bottom. Air bubbles rise.. you'll NEVER get the air out with the bleed nipples facing down.

No, but you will certainly go through a lot of brake fluid trying.
